When it comes to traveling alone, a woman can never be too careful. ABC 13 Action News reports that criminals have been flagging down female drivers to pull off a frightening scam. The first reports surfaced in Las Vegas, but now police are warning female drivers about an alarming crime trend that could be sweeping the nation.
One unsuspecting Las Vegas woman was told her tire was about to pop off by one of these sneaky con artists.
“I was a little bit skeptic, but I didn’t want to have my wheels come off,” she said. Seconds later, “He goes I don’t have the tools. Let’s go,” and off he went with her purse.
